During a virtual appearance at Books-A-Million, Meyer confirmed that there would be two more books in the Twilight saga, though fans will be disappointed to learn that there's no set timeline for their release just yet. Twilight fans can be counted on for being patient, however, since they waited years for Midnight Sun, a retelling of the original Twilight novel from Edward Cullen's perspective.

'I have got them outlined and a chapter written I think of the first one, so I know it's there. I am not ready to do that right now, I want to do something brand new,' Meyer said when fans asked about more stories from Forks, Washington, and their favorite vampire coven, according to USA Today.

'For me, a lot of the joy of writing comes from creating and I really want to do a new world and new rules and new mythology. Mythology is kind of my thing,' Meyer said.

The author did say that fans expecting Midnight Sun's follow-ups to continue the idea of offering the saga's whole narrative from Edward's point of view may be disappointed. In a separate interview, she said that revisiting the story and looking at it from his eyes wasn't the best experience.
'This is it for Edward. Writing from his point of view makes me extra anxious. And the experience of writing this book was not a super pleasant one,' she told the New York Times of Midnight Sun. 'I think this gives you enough of a sense of what it’s like to be Edward that you could go and look at the other books and you would know what’s going on in his head.'
Meyer also told the Guardian that Midnight Sun is her 'nemesis' and that 'every single word was a struggle.' Meyer also noted that the book isn't necessarily a sequel, it's more of a 'companion' piece to the original trilogy.
'Remember that this is all going to work out for Edward and that someday, he's going to be incredibly happy all the time,' she told Seventeen. 'Try not to think about his side of New Moon (which I will never, never try to write).'

Meyer also offered a hint to her next release, saying that it would be vampire-free.
'After finally getting finished with this book, I plan to spend a lot of time in other worlds where vampires don't exist,' she added. 'I guess my hope is that I can finish another book in a lot less time.'
Twilight Book Review
When seventeen-year-old Isabella (Bella) Swan moves to the rainy town of Forks, Washington to live with her Dad, all she is expecting to find is boredom, apathy and the usual jocks and nerds at the sleepy high school. Nothing could be further from reality. She is captivated by the beautiful but aloof Cullen siblings, but they have a secret to guard and the rude and hostile Edward is determined to stay away. But even the knowledge that Edward is a vampire cannot curb Bella’s dangerous desire for him, despite the warnings of her father and her new best friend Jacob Black, who just happens to be a werewolf. Bella and Edward’s story is a thrilling mix of horror and romance as well as a seductive coming of age story, where two lovers fight for their love against all the odds.
The compelling romance was an instant hit when it was published in 2005, selling millions of copies and winning several awards including the 2008 British Book Award Children’s Book of the Year for Breaking Dawn. In fact, book one broke the UK record for the fastest time to sell 1 million copies of a book in Waterstone’s. The books’ success continued with the Hollywood blockbuster that made both Robert Pattison and Kristen Stewart’s names. The Twilight saga books have been a modern phenomenon, bringing vampires to the masses. Twilight’s romance and its universal themes of rebellion, angst and finding your place have earned it fans (known as “Twihards”) across the globe.
The vampire romance saga is a four book series and it’s best to read them in order, so start with Book 1 or embark on the whole Twilight collection. Readers aged 10 and over (including adults!) will be sure to be sucked into this must-read series.
